Kitchen coming along slowly

Well this is how the kitchen kitchen looked after the laminate counter had been taken off.

Yes the top of my beloved dish washer ( those of us with kids) you know what i am talking about.

Here she is the granite (Giallo ornamental) I wanted more gold but depending on the light the color changes . I would say this is more olive browns and hint of gold, which I guess in the end worked out perfect for me , the colors in the rest of the house are those colors. It has been 3 days and now i really love it . The truth of it is the hubby made me stick with this one , I was going back and forth for two weeks trying to decide, but I guess in the end he was right (let's not tell him ) you know about him being right.

Here is a close up.

Here you can see i still need to pick out a backsplash get a hood over the cooktop ( will show that later), then decide on weather or not to change color of cabinets.

Thank you to all of my new followers I promise it will get better so stay on this ride with me
